Title :
Silicon-waveguide duplexers using nonreciprocal Raman gain
Author :
Krause, Michael ; Brinkmeyer, Ernst
Abstract :
Using the Raman-gain nonreciprocity in silicon waveguides, an isolating duplexer has been designed that protects the transmitter from a same-wavelength return signal, while routing the latter to a detector and pre-amplifying it.
